Double burden
The double burden of European competition and the Bundesliga seems to be an increasingly big problem for TSG Hoffenheim. After the 3-2 home loss to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League during the week, it is clear that the team is struggling to find consistent form despite their fighting performance. Although the result against Spurs was respectable with two goals of their own, the defeat highlighted the challenges Hoffenheim faces.
In the Bundesliga, the effects of the double burden are also being felt: Hoffenheim are not always able to deliver the performance they would like and often struggle with the exhaustion caused by the additional international matches. These inconsistent performances in both competitions mean that the team is not yet able to show the desired consistency in the league.
Even though Hoffenheim celebrated an important victory against Holstein Kiel last weekend, the question remains as to how they can handle the double burden in the long term without their Bundesliga performances suffering.
